After recording their first and only demo in 2004, the band attracted interest from several labels within the scene. This led to the signing with Tabu Recordings (a division of Tuba Records) and the recording of the debut album (Monument Bineothan) in 2005, which was released 2006 in Europe and 2007 in the United States. The band has already made an early statement by receiving a Norwegian Grammy nomination for their debut. Originally a five-piece orchestra that has developed into a musical collective, no longer defined by the number of individuals. This generates various constellations within the concept, evolving the bands vision for sound and dynamics. The constructive core consists of the two founding members and the two guitarists Martin and Håkon, but the live-settings vary from five up to eight members. Benea Reach tend to, in recordings and performances, avoid the common patterns and structures of general settings.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a blink of an eye
Everything changed
One decisive, altering moment
Redefining structures and emotions
Creating a new beginning

Stay

Never fade away

Overwhelming sentiment
Insight to revelation
Unexplainable and unthinkable

The night ends and a new day begins

A new day begins

In a blink of an eye
Everything changed
One decisive altering moment
Redefining structures and emotions
In this moment mysteries unravel
The night ends and a new day begins

Unexplainable and unthinkable
